This website is dedicated to the memory of Brian Hudson, Linda's husband &  manager who passed away on 21st September 2007. Brian was the drummer with bands Sparrow & Harmony Grass. The latter had the hit record 'Move In a little Closer Baby' in 1968. Brian went onto work for Neil Warnock at The Agency looking after overseas artistes before becoming The Nolans tour manager during their most successful period in the early 1980's in the UK & Japan where they sold over 12 million records. 

Brian married Linda & they both left the family act in 1983, when Linda began the solo career that has seen her break the record for headlining the most consecutive major summer seasons shows in Blackpool (12), enter the Guinness Book of Records (2007) along with 3 of her sisters for her role as Mrs Johnstone in Blood Brothers & win Cabaret Vocalist of the year in 1990. Brian passed away after a short illness & will be sadly missed by everyone who knew him, he was a great practical joker & always had a smile for anyone.

Someone remarked at his funeral "Heaven look out, its gonna be hell in there now!". Most of all Brian will be missed by Linda whom he has been besides 24/7 for over 25 years - they were inseparable. They were a real 'pair' in every sense, genuine soul mates & shared every moment together. Brian was a great husband, father, singer, drummer & manager. Many people in show business knew him well & will be shocked at his passing at just 61 years of age.
